.The Green Party is fully committed to restoring the Erasmus programme, which gave such brilliant educational opportunites to so many young people.

Freedom of movement is not a threat - it's a blessing.

Sad that Labour has turned its back on something so valuable.

Dear Mr Sunak,
On behalf of pretty much every doctor in the land, pretty much every person on a waiting list in the land, pretty much every sick person in the land, and increasingly most voters in the land...

Great to see brilliant #Brighton pubs & restaurants recognised in Bravo awards inc Terre a Terre The Eddy and the amazing Gayle & Paul at the Ladies Mile pub - great community-minded landlords, who also do amazing roast dinners. Congrats all👏 theargus.co.uk/news/24262980.…

After all the corruption we've seen from the Tory party and everything they've done to bring our NHS to its knees, Sunak dares to suggest it's the sick who can't work who are the problem? The very people he and his party have let down so badly? The sheer nerve of it.

🆕 As rents in #Bristol continue to skyrocket, Carla Denyer has welcomed Caroline Lucas' motion to Parliament to introduce rent controls.

Carla says: “Changing the rules around renting is a key part of creating a housing market in #Bristol and the UK which works for everyone.”

There are more billionaires than ever before. They are richer than ever before. The need to tax the super-rich has never been so pressing. It's time the #G20 takes a transformative leap forward with a global minimum tax on billionaires. #TaxTheSuperRich

Carla Denyer, 'So many of these stories that have come out.. And we've got to be honest, it's mostly been from the Conservative party.. One bizarre grubby story after another.. If you behave like that in any workplace, you'd be out on your ears, straight away' #BBCQT

*huge clap

📺 'They're doing it because they're in danger.'

Carla Denyer makes clear the Green Party position on the Government's cruel Rwanda Bill on #BBCQT

I hope friends and colleagues in The Labour Party will read this by Caroline Lucas. If a radical liberal Green can write about England sympathetically and with insight and progressive values then so, surely, can we.
